• EXAMPLE: The liberalisation of air services within the ASEAN region and outside the region with Dialogue Partners will enable greater air connectivity, which will in turn lower fares for the carriage of goods and passengers, and provide businessmen and the travelling public with more options. ASEAN signed its first air services agreement with China in 2011 and expanded the agreement in 2012. ASEAN will embark on greater engagement with its Dialogue Partners to conclude more liberal air services agreements.
